Default Bug Shield

Does any one know where to get a bug shield for an 06 xB?
I'm looking for the plastic one that attaches to the hood.
Thanks in advance.

I bought one from JC Whitney for about $35. Wade is the mfr & very happy with it. Even uses factory holes under the hood.

Thanks for all the replies, I oudered one from J C Whitney, It is the less expensive one. I just bought my 06 xB less that 2 weeks ago and the spending started. This has been worse than my Valkyrie Motorcycle.
Once I figure out how to post pictures, and get all the add on done I'll post some pictures.

Bought my 06 xB in December. I know the feeling! (So far bug deflector, lights, spoiler and window graphics. Roof rack next. If it didn’t have the factory nicer rims, they’d get replaced too.)

This LUND clear bug deflector was about $65 from autopartswarehouse.com
This would look good for blue, white, green or red.

Anyone have the AVS deflector? If so, I have a couple of questions:

Did you have to drill any holes, or was everything already lined up?

Is there a logo printed onto the deflector? I hate advertising so this is important that I know this. If so, approx. what are the dimensions? I could cover it with a Rising Sun sticker if I had too.

Cheers.

I ordered the lund from Autopartswarehouse, it came in cracked Looked like fedex ground played football with the box.

I found out pepboys could order it for the same price, so the second time around I went there. That way if it came in cracked I wouldn't need to deal with getting a refund, they would have to reorder it.

Overall it waas easy to install, no holes to drill with the lund one.

I got the smoked version, which has the Lund written in white on it.

the clear one looks nice, def. i wrote lund like 2 days ago for a product that they make for other vehicles but not for the first gen. their response is "sorry, we do not carry "bleep" for that vehicle. but we change every few months, check the website blah blah."
